I have been using online receivers because my 7mhz dipole came down in a storm and after my stroke on 3 June 2024 I can no longer get up on a ladder to fix it. Also too much neighborhood noise.

Someone came in over Ball Smacker (which I can barely hear at my QTH) and played:

SINPO=34433, very good
102- "War Pigs" by Black Sabbath.
104- Off.


Hearing Ball Smacker now, SINPO=22222:

105- "The Purple People Eater" by Sheb Wooley.
107- Soft pop tune sung by OM I can't ID, as too faint a song to cut through the QRN and QRM whistle.
110- YL IDs station.
110- "Games People Play" by The Alan Parsons Project.

130- "Pumped Up Kicks" by Foster The People. Now SINPO=33333, better!
133- "One Love, People Get Ready" by Bob Marley.
136- YL IDs station and gives email address.

(I'll take a quick guess that the theme is songs with "people" in the title)
0118 UTC ID with email addy, into "The Beautiful People"-Marilyn Manson
(Static crashes are really tough here....damn!)
0122 UTC "Rainy Day People"-Gordon Lightfoot
